"The general feeling among many editors and reporters at the beginning was that this will be the most important case regarding Israel bashing, et cetera,'' Rosner said.
"Then they understood it's more complicated and they lost interest. He was not the arch terrorist sponsor they thought, but just a university professor making some outrageous comments, maybe giving some money to shady groups but not one which you can nail for being a real supporter of real terrorism.''
That didn't stop John Ashcroft from saying Al-Arian was the North American head of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. If that's the case then why is Al-Arian getting nothing more than a slap on the risk. I can believe Al-Arian hates Jews with all his heart. I doubted his supporters in the media (such as John Sugg.) I read the indictment. There was a laundry list of dirty dealings listed. It's was all crap that didn't hold up in court.
Al-Arian will be out soon. He already served most of his time.
A bigot does time for his big mouth and the Justice Department failed miserablely trying to make anything solid to him stick. The Left and the Right can kid themselves all they want. There are no winners here.
